OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Make sure that you have fully extended the FM antenna wire.
• Make sure that you have removed the battery spacer from the remote
control handset.
• Make sure that the system is connected to an AC outlet that is always
“live”.
• Do not connect the system to an AC outlet controlled by a wall switch.
Remove The Dummy CD Transit Protection Card
This system was shipped with a “dummy CD” transit protection card in the CD
player. The card was inserted to prevent the CD player mechanism from moving
during shipping and handling. It must be removed and discarded before you can
load your own CD. After connecting the system to your AC outlet, press the
STANDBY/ON button to turn the system ‘On’. Then press the OPEN/CLOSE
button to open the CD tray. Remove the “dummy CD” and discard it.
Press the OPEN/CLOSE button to close the CD tray.
General Controls
Most of the main functions of this system can be operated by the controls on the
front panel of the main unit, or by the buttons on the remote control handset. If a
specific function can only be operated by the remote handset, or by the front panel
controls, this will be clearly indicated in the instructions.
When operating this system with the remote control handset make sure that the
IR (Infrared) transmitter on the front of the remote handset is pointed at the remote
sensor on the front panel of the main unit.
The effective operating range of the remote control is approximately 15 feet. Please
note that bright sunlight or room lighting may interfere with the remote control
operation. If the remote is not operating properly try reducing the brightness of the
room or moving closer to the main unit. If this does not solve the problem, it may
be time to change the remote control battery.
